United States Ambassador to Zimbabwe Pamela Tremont has sought to reassure the public regarding concerns over a potential condom crisis in the country, following the announcement that the US President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) will end its 20 years of funding.
Gertrude Ncube, the HIV Prevention Coordinator at the Ministry of Health and Childcare, recently said that funding for the purchase of “maDeMbare” condoms will cease in 2026, attributing this decision to donor fatigue. Said Ncube:
<blockquote>
As we are here gathered as government, civil society and partners, let us know that our condom funding is at stake and PEPFAR has already told us that from 2026, there won’t be any condoms funded by them.
We need as a country to look at how best we mobilise even domestic funding actually to fund condoms.
</blockquote>
“Madembare” refers to a type of condom distributed for free, particularly in areas with high sexual activity, to help prevent HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
These condoms are known for their strong, often unpleasant smell, which has led to some users rejecting them.
With PEPFAR accounting for 77% of all condom funding in Zimbabwe, its withdrawal could have a detrimental effect on efforts to combat the spread of STIs in the country.
However, during a recent press event at the US Embassy’s postponed Independence celebrations, Ambassador Tremont assured journalists that discussions are underway with their partners to ensure the continuation of their programmes. Said Tremont (via <a href="https://www.newzimbabwe.com/boost-for-hiv-fight-as-us-ambassador-reveals-presidential-plan-is-engaging-partners-to-continue-programme/">NewZimbabwe.com</a>):
<blockquote>
PEPFAR is not exiting in the foreseeable future. It was an emergency response so we are looking to our PEPFAR partners to start looking at the sustainability of the programme.

The US Ambassador to Zimbabwe, Pamela Tremont, is trying to calm fears about a possible condom shortage in the country. The program that funds condoms is ending after 20 years, but discussions are happening to keep it going. "Madembare" condoms, which are smelly but important for stopping HIV/AIDS, might be affected. The US is a big part of funding condoms in Zimbabwe, so it's important to find a solution. Don't worry, says Ambassador Tremont, they are working on keeping the program going for now.

US Ambassador Pamela Tremont Responds To Fears Of Condom Crisis In Zimbabwe

The Maximizing Options to Advance Informed Choice for HIV Prevention (MOSAIC) consortium is introducing long-acting injectable cabotegravir for pre-exposure prophylaxis (CAB for PrEP) alongside oral PrEP and the PrEP ring in five African countries.
MOSAIC is a five-year (2021-2026) global project funded by the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) through the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and is led by FHI 360.
MOSAIC’s primary goal is to empower adolescent girls, young women, and other women to prevent HIV by accelerating the introduction and scale-up of new and emerging biomedical prevention products.
Proposed countries for MOSAIC’s work include Kenya, South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Eswatini, Lesotho, Uganda, Namibia, and Nigeria.
As reported by <a href="https://spikedmedia.co.zw/fhi-360-and-partners-introduce-injectable-hiv-prevention-method-as-part-of-research-study/">Spiked</a>, South Africa and Zimbabwe are the first to welcome CAB for PrEP following regulatory approval and the arrival of the donated product on site.
The rollout is part of Catalyzing Access to New Prevention Products to Stop HIV (CATALYST), a three-year, multi-country implementation study that aims to assess the delivery of multiple PrEP methods to an estimated 11,000 HIV-negative participants.
The study is taking place across 28 public health service delivery sites supported by PEPFAR in Kenya, Lesotho, South Africa, Uganda and Zimbabwe. As of March 31, nearly 4,000 participants have been enrolled.
Dr. Atul Gawande, assistant administrator for global health at USAID, said:
<blockquote>
USAID’s commitment to cutting-edge research and development is advancing innovative solutions to some of the world’s greatest health challenges. We see that with CATALYST.
This study is supporting women and girls by expanding their options of methods for HIV prevention and by producing findings that will guide the scale-up of these prevention methods across the African continent.
</blockquote>
Dr Kristine Torjesen, director of science facilitation at FHI 360, said:
<blockquote>
CATALYST is the largest study of its kind and represents a locally-led, youth-focused implementation project in which participants have the opportunity to be among the first to learn about and try new PrEP methods.
They will also make their voices heard in how PrEP is rolled out in their communities, which is critical given that adolescent girls and young women continue to bear the brunt of the HIV epidemic in many places.
</blockquote>
The study is being conducted in two stages. Between May and October 2023, stage 1 launched across all sites in all five countries and includes tenofovir-based oral pills and the dapivirine ring (PrEP ring).
The second stage begins once CAB for PrEP has been approved by the national regulatory authority in each country and the donated product is available on-site.
Participants will be followed for one to three years to collect information about how they choose, use, switch between and like the offered PrEP methods.
The study results will offer valuable evidence to guide the future expansion and sustainability of HIV prevention options, ultimately contributing to a transformative impact on HIV prevention.

FHI 360, A Global NGO And Partners Introduce Injectable HIV Prevention Method As Part Of Research Study

The United States of America, through the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (or PEPFAR), is using at least $150,000 USD to help with COVID-19 prevention measures in Zimbabwe specifically targeted at people living with HIV.
In a statement on Tuesday, the US Embassy in Zimbabwe said the PEPFAR funding includes the purchase of soap, buckets, hand washing stations and hand sanitizer for supported facilities, and the reproduction of COVID-19 communication materials.
The products will be share at supported facilities and through faith and community networks around the country.
The activities will be carried out by three PEPFAR clinical implementing partners, namely, the Organisation for Public Health Interventions and Development (OPHID), International Training and Education Center for Health (I-TECH) and the Zimbabwe Association of Church-Related Hospitals (ZACH).
The $150,000 USD funds are in addition to the United States Agency for International Development (USAID)’s $470,000 contribution to the World Health Organization to support Zimbabwe’s fight against COVID 19, announced on March 27, 2020.
Meanwhile, the United States has provided over $1 billion in health assistance to strengthen health systems in Zimbabwe since 1980.
